It's really just because journalists and Kojima kept hyping it up as some incredibly disturbing and heartbreaking scene that'll be constantly talked about.
Anyone knows if all the cutscenes on the PS3/360 version are real-time? I mean, it would be too tempting to use the cutscenes of the PS4/Xbox One versions in pre-recorded form for visual enhancement.
Anyone with the game: Can you zoom/move the camera during cutscenes like in most MG games?

Simply Games are good and very reliable.
Yeah, one of the tapes you find from the high-rank AI battles (Monster Hunter terminology, I know) details with alarming amounts of elaboration of an encounter Paz had with Strangelove, who takes a rather strong liking to her.
Explains a lot about how screwed up Hal came out, at least!
Now we in the good stuff. Take my monies.

How so?
(my concern was specifically about BB, not the other characters)
I'm trying to warn my friend who happens to be the type of person you are speaking of. I keep telling him that it's basically one mission with a few side missions set and the exact same camp and he won't believe the previews that state the main mission is only about two hours long. I mean, sure, he's like me and will replay the hell out of the game, but he just won't buy the fact that this is basically just a one mission prologue to PP.
Stubborn.
On this topic, I'm still really hyped for the game even having seen someone play through the main mission and having watched the end cutscene. I just really love the polish of the MGS games and can replay them, and experiment, through multiple playthroughs. Add in the fact that I will get this on PS4 for only $20 digitally, because I have $10 still saved from when I bought my PS4 and got the voucher, and I definitely think the game is worth that amount.

Yeah, that didn't help. That hype train.

Guys, I can't stop crying. I finally saw the ending and it was absolutely heartbreaking, shocking, and many other superlative adjectives. Beloved paper-thin character Pacifica Ocean (Paz for you philistines) just meant so much to me.The only small comfort I can get from this unprecedented tragedy is that her ashes, as well as her organs, charred flesh, and bone fragments, were scattered over her namesake, the ocean.

Always trust Kojima to make cheesy cringe-worthy dialogue and scenes.
All the tapes in the game? It looked like it.
Oh, FML.

Here's a transcript of the post credits dialogue if anyone's interested:
Skull Face: "Your favorite song. Nicola. Bart. Immigrants, wrongly executed. But their deaths served as a message to others. That ours is a society that murders the innocent. Do you too believe your sacrifice will change the world?"
*The song "Here's to you, Nicola and Bart" is playing.
Skull Face: "Cipher has been hiding ever since his grand experiment. No one's seen him in years. All we hear are orders delivered by proxy. Except you. You met with him, face to face, in order to contact Big Boss. Tell me where he is. Where is Cipher? Where is Zero?"
Skull Face: "I've never known choice. Where I was born, the language I speak, I never had the freedom to choose for myself. But you, right now, are free. Do as you will."
Paz: "This will save Big Boss?"
Skull Face: "It may."
Paz: "Will you really kill Zero for me?"
Skull Face: "Not for you."
Paz: "Alright. Zero is..." *sound of door slamming shut*

No, she pretended to be 16 for her cover. Her real age was 21. She even mentions her fear of beginning to look older than 16 in the tape where Strangelove gets all touchy-feely with her and a bottle of lotion.
Because if it's still something he does for one character, it's still his thing for them all. They all get long winded at some point. The idea that because it's Sutherland, he will only be able to use him sparingly shouldn't worry you. I highly doubt that's going to be an issue.

Is it ever explained why Chico has a headphone jack in his chest?
Nope.

Not sure, I think there's some tapes of Chico going to the camp so it might be in there.
I don't think she said a real age just she was playing a teenager.
But I don't know the laws of Colombia either.

i've got to say, i'm really warming up to the music.

That ending reminded me a lot of a Call of Duty game.
Not GAF. ToraShiro warned about doing such things.
I would have prefered if the Mother Base destruction part was playable, but otherwise I enjoyed the ending.
Also, I'm one of the Kiefer "haters" (Don't hate him, but don't like him voicing Snake either). However I felt like Snake needed to speak more. We only hear few lines from him in the entire thing...

I'm digging Kojima's new disdain for camera cuts.
I just got around to seeing the ending, and I enjoyed it! But, for pacing purposes I would much rather start the Phantom Pain right after, than breaking it into two releases.
I liked the music and VA, Kiefer sounds similar to Richard Doyle's performance, only younger. But, I'll have to listen to it more. Aldo I'm really enjoying the cinematogrophy! It feels more dynamic than the usual cutscenes, so I hope the full game carries that.

In the end credits, Skullface makes a distinctive reference to Nicola And Bart in the end -- two outspoken anarchists in the 1920's who were wrongfully tried and executed for crimes they did not commit. Then the credits proceed to play this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oday_Fc-Gc. I get the sneaking suspicion that The Phantom Pain will be loosely inspired by the events surrounding Nicola and Bart's wrongful accusation, with a hint of Melville's Moby Dick ("call me Ishmael").
Ending was inaccurate. My mother base was all females. Sad to see that the lamest of the rumored endings was true. Keifer isn't good as Big Boss. Seemed uninspired from the few lines I heard in the ending. Still interested in the story, so I may pick this up when it is $15 or less.
Or when it comes bundled with MGSV.

Like someone else said about the ending.
Wow, really?
